Course book materials
are all the materials in a
course book package that we
use in the classroom to
present and practice
language, to develop learners’
language skills
HOW DO WE SELECT AND USE
COURSE BOOK MATERIALS?
A course book package usually includes a
student’s book, a teacher’s book and audio and or
video recording

Problems
Strategies
Possible solutions
The task or exercise
is too short
Extending material
Write extra items,
following the same
pattern
The task or exercise
is too long
Shortening material
Give different parts of
the text or task to
different learners
The task doesn’t suit
the learners’ learning
style
Change the
methodology
Change the
interaction pattern,
e.g. use a matching
task as a mingling
activity(in this case
learners move around
the class to find their
partners)
Problems
Strategies
Possible solutions
The texts or tasks are
too easy or too
difficult
Changing the level of
the material
Make material
more/less challenging
The activities in the
units in the book
always follow the
same sequence
Reordering material
Change the order of
the material
e.g. ask learners to
cover up a page or a
part of a page, so that
they focus on what
you want them to do
first.
There is not enough
practice material in a
particular unit
Making use of all the
resources in the book
Use extra material
from the book :
grammar summaries,
word list, lists of
irregular verbs, etc.
